SPECIFECATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 386,401, dated July 17, 1888.

Application filed November 1G, 1887.

T all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, JOHN F. HEADY and JOHN H. PATTERSON, citizens et the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomeryand State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cash Registers and Indicators, of which the following is a i'ull, clear, and exact description, reierence being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this speciiication.

Our invention relates to improvements in cash registers and indicators designed for the use el store-keepers and others as a means of accurately registering the total receipts for any given period el' time and for indicating to the customers that the amounts paid have been registered by disclosing to their view such amounts ou iigured tablets.

It has for its object an improvement in the construction of this class et' machines, and its novelty will he herein set forth, and specifically pointed out in the claims.

Fig. 13, Sheet 8, is a detail view ol" the mechanism for tripping the gong-hammer.

The same letters oi" reference are used to in- 6o dicate identical parts in all the iigures.

This machine, like others el its class having tablets which are to be exposed to view upon theeperation of any key, is contained in a locked case or cabinet, the upper part ot' 65x which is provided with glass wimlows,throngh which the tablets can be seen when exposed, and in the lower part of which is contained a money drawer or till, with mechanism whereby whenever any key is operated said drawer 7c is thrown open, and which cabinet (not here shown) may be ot' the usual or any suitable construction.

The frame-work A of the machine, properly braced by suitable cross-bars, has secured in its lower front portion a shaft, B, on which the operating-keys C, extending to the back of the machine and projecting through slots in the front of the cabinet, are strung and pivoted. Asis customary for utilizing space, these keys 8o at their front ends are arranged in two banks and are provided with numbered buttons D.

Supported vertically in guides X" at the back ofthe machine are a series ol`tablet-1ods,

E, with their lower ends resting one upon each S5 key, and each of which rods is provided at its upper end with a tablet, F, bearing on each side a number corresponding in value with that of the key upon which it rests.

F is the usual tablet-supporting wing, G 9o the resetting-springs, and H the detents or shoulders upon the tablet-rods, which are caught by the wing to hold thetablet exposed.

I is the usual retracting-weight for resetting the wing.

J is themain vibrating frame, extending under all ofthe keys, hung upon the shaft B, and. provided with weighted resetting-arms K.

All of the parts thus lar described are well known in this class of machines and need no roo further description.

One feature cf our invention relates to the registering mechanism and the means for operating it, and may be described as follows:

Upon a shaft, L, jou rnaled in the secondary frame M of the machine, which is supported upon and carried by the main frame, are three registering-wheels, NOP, which arejournaled loosely upon said shaft. Each of these wheels has upon its periphery one hundred numbers, those on the wheel N being the multiples of live from 0 to 495, those on the wheel O the multiples of teu from O to 990, and those on the wheel P the multiples of one from 0 to 99, each inclusive. The hub ofthe wheel N has secured to it a disk, Q, Fig. 4C, whose periphery is provided with one hundred teeth. The wheel- P likewise has secured to its hub a disk, B, Fig. 3, provided with one hundred teeth, while the wheel O has secured to its hub two similar disks, S T, one on each side, and each provided with one hundred teeth.

Between the wheels N and O there is hung upon the shaft L what we designate a vibrating dog-carrier. (Illustrated more particularly in Fig. 10.) It is composed of two side arms, U V, whose hubs encircle and arejournaled upon the shaft L and a transverse shaft, X, and in this instance is braced by a crossbar, WV. Upon astud or spindle, a, extending from the rear end of the arm U, is pivoted a gravitating dog, Y, which engages With the teeth of the wheel S. In this instance there are nine keys grouped between the registeringwheels N and O, and they represent the odd multiples of live from 15 to 95, inclusive, and for each key there is an arm, Z, whose lower end is pivoted directly to the key and whose upper end is slotted, the shaft X of the dog-carrier extending through said slot. The upper ends of these slotted arms Z may be spaced on the shaft X, to correspond with their lower ends, by means of spools b. It will be observed that in this instance the arms at the outer sides of the group are bent to avoid contact with the registering-wheels. These arms Z are pivoted to the operatingkeys Oat unequal distances from the fulcrumshaft B of said keys to cause each arm when its key is operated to vibrate the dog-carrier to the proper extent to turn the registeringwheel O the exact number of notches necessary to register the tens of the value of such key on said wheel in the following manner: The arm Z on the fifteen-cent key is pivoted thereto at a point nearer to the fulcrumlshaft B than are any of the other arms `of the odd-numbered keys, and this point is at such distance from the fulcrum of said key that when the key is operated its arm Z will vibrate the dog-carrier just sufficiently to turn the wheel O one notch, and thereby register ten'cents on said wheel. The arm Z of the next key-the twenty-fivecent key*is pivoted to the key at a point a little farther from the fulcruIn-shaft, so that when this key is operated its arm will vibrate the dog-carrier far enough to turn the registering-wheel O two notches, and thereby register twenty centson said wheel, and so on with all the odd-numbered keys up to and including 95, the amount registered on the wheel O being in each instance tive cents less than the value of the key operated. The fives of these odd-numbered keys are registered on the wheel N in the manner and by the means to be now described.

Hung upon the shaft B by arms c, Fig. 4, is a five-cent or odd-number carrying bar, A', extending transversely under the forward ends of all of the odd-numbered keys and provided with a rear extension, d, to which is pivoted a gravitating dog, e, which engages with the toothed wheel Q of the registering-wheel N in such manner that whenever any of the oddnumbered keys from 15 to 95, inclusive, are operated the bar A is depressed and the dog e actuated to turn the wheel N one notch, and thereby register five cents on said wheel. At the same time, as before explained, the tens of these odd-numbered keys are registered on the wheel O. The five'cent key is pivoted on the shaft B outside of the wheel N. It is not provided with any. arm Z nor otherwise connected to the vibrating dog-carrier; but the live-cent bar Aextends under the forward end of this key and is depressed by each operation of the key, and its dog e at each operation of the key turns the wheel N one notch and registers tive cents thereon.- If desired, however, the five-cent key may have an armZ pivoted to it and connected to a vibrating dog hung upon the shaft L and engaging with the teeth ofthe diskQ on the wheel N, so that upon operating the five-cent key'the wheel N will be turned one notch to register tive cents. In such case the five-cent bar A need not extend under the five-cent key.

The next group of keys is between the wheels O and P, and consists of the keys indicating multiples of ten from l() to 90, incl usive. They are provided with a second set of arms, Z,pivoted to thekeys at points unequally distant from the fulcrum of the keys and counccted to a second vibrating dog-carrier, B', provided with a pivoted dog, (not showin) engaging With the toothed Wheel T of the registering-wheel O, these arms Z and dog-carrier B corresponding in construction and relative arrangement to those previously described, so that upon operating any key of this group the dog-carrier B is vibrated to an extent sufficient to turn the wheel O the exact number of notches necessary to register the value of such key upon said wheel.

Instead of having two toothed disks, S T, secured to the wheel O, with an independent dog-carrier and dog for each disk, one of said `dogcarriers being connected to the group of keys indicating odd multiples of five above the first power and the other to the group indicating even multiples of five, the wheel O may be provided with only one toothed disk and one dog-carrier and dog for actuating itln such case the dog-carrier would extend laterally on each side of the wheel O,with its ICO IBO

dog located near its center, and would be conheet-,ed on one side by the arms Z to the group ot' keys representing odd multiples ot' five above the li rst power and on the other by the arms Z' to the groupindicating even multiples of tive, and it would be vibrated by the operation ot' any key ot' either group to cause its dog to aetuate the registering-wheel O, as will be readily understood.

'lhe remaining group of keys, indicating dollars, in this instance l, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 10, is located between the registeringwheel P and the t'rame of the machine,and through the meA dium ot' a third set ot' arms, Z", and a third vibrating dogcarrier, C, provided with a dog,

j', engaging with the toothed disk R of the wheel l), the value of each of these keys is registered on said whcel,as will be readily understood.

The arms Z, Z', and Z", instead of being pivoted to the operatingkeys of their respective groups at points unequally distant l'roni the l'ulcrum ot' said keys, may, to accomplish the same result, be connected to said keys at points equally distant from their t'ulerum and have the slots in their upper ends made of unequal length, the lengths of the slots being so adjusted that upon operatingany key of a group the bottom wall ot' the slot in its arm will engage with the shaft of the vibrating dog-cau ricr at such time as to cause the dog of said carrier to actuatc the registering-wheeljust sut'liciently to register the value of the key operated, as will be readily understood.

'lhe feature of our invention relating to the combination ot'the tive cent-registering wheel, the ten-cent-registcring wheel, the operatingkeys, and the tive-cent bar is not confined in its application to the machine we have shown and described. lt is applicable to other ma chines which are provided with a vecentregistering wheel and a ten-cent-registering wheel actuated by a series of keys, whether the connecting mechanism between the keys and the ten-cent wheel be similar to that which we have shown and described or not.

It will also be understood that our invetr tion is not limited to the particular form of the five-cent bar which we have shown and described, it being only necessary that the oddnnmbercd keys be connected to the tive-cent wheel in such manner as to actuate it at each operation ot' any one ol' them.

To prevent the registeringwheels by a violent operation ot' the machine from being re volved more Athan theexactnumberofnotches necessary to register' the value of the key operated we provide brake mechanism, as tollows: A. rock-shat't, D'. is iournaicd in the secondary tranic across the top of the registering wheels, and is provided between the wheels N and O with an arm, ll', connected by a pivoted link. F', to a rearwardly-extending arm, G'. rigidly connected to or formed integral with the tive-cent bar A. Likewise secured to the shaft D' are two dogs, H' l', the

former of which is over the toothed disk Q and the latter over the toothed disk S. The

arm E' and the dogs H' I' are so adjusted that whenever any key of the Iirst group is operated the vibration of the bar A will throw up the rear end otVl the arm G' and cause the os` cillation ot' the rock -shatt D' through the medium of the link F' to cause the dogs H' 1' to simultaneously engage with the teeth ot' the disks Q and Sjnst at the completion ofthe stroke of the key, thereby forming a positive stop to the registeringwheels N and O and causing the exact amount ot' the key operated to be registered. The second and third groups ot' keys are similarly provided with vibrating bars J'K, hung upon the i'ulcrum-shaft Band having rearward integral extensions L' M', with pivoted links N' O' connecting them to arms P' Q', secured to sleeves R' S', loose upon the shaft D'. rlhe sleeve it' is provided with a brake dog, T', located over the toothed disk T, and the sleeve S' is provided with asimilar dog, U', over the toothed disk l in such inanner that whenever any key of the second or thirdgronp is operated its sleeve will be partially rotated to cause its dog to engage with its corresponding toothed disk, for the purpose bet'ore explained. In addition to these brakedogs there are ordinary weighted holdingdogs, V', hung loosely upon the shat't D', one for each ol" the disks Q it T, and engaging with the teeth thereof, and which, it desired, may be provided with springs, one of which is shown applied to the dog for the disk Q in Figs. l and 4.

The bars J K', while they correspond in appcaranee to the iivecent bar A', perform no other vfunction than to operate the brake-dogs. lt will be observed that the front ends ofthe arms G LM'extend over the vibrating frame J, by means ot' which the hars A', J', and K are reset to their normal posit-ion at'ter each operation ofthe key ol`their respective groups.

Vhile we have shown and described the IOO brake-dogs for the second and third groups of 11o keys as secured to sleeves loose upon the shaft D', in order that the brake-dogs may be independent in their operation, yet, it' desired, the construction may be simplitied by securing all ot' the brake-dogs directly to the shaft D' and dispensing with the sleeves R' l'. In such case the bars l.' K' and two ot' the arms Si L M' and two of the arms E P' Q might also be dispensed with, the remaining arm G', L', or h being secured directly to the main vibrating t'rame J. Under such construction all of the brake dogs would be operated simultaneously by the depression of any key.

It will be understood that this brake nieclr anism is applicable to other caslrregisters which are provided with similar registeringwheels operated by a series ot' pivoted keys, whether the connecting mechanism between the keys and registering-whcels corresponds to that which we have shown and described or not.

Secured to the secondary frame is a plate, YV', extending across all ot" the registeringwheels in close proximity thereto, and provided with three reading-openings, g, through cach of which but a single number on the registering-wheel can be seen. In order to increase the registering capacity of the machine, a toothed disk, h, is pivoted upon the under side of the plate V, one by the side of each reading-opening,in such manner that one tooth ofeach disk is exposed through its corresponding reading-opening between the end of the reading-opening and the number on the registeringwheel. Each disk h is yieldingly held from rotation by a spring-pressed dog, 13, piv` oted to the plate, as seen in Fig. 11.

Each of the registering-wheels N O P is provided with a projecting piu, j', thatbn the wheel N being located in the space between 0 and 4.95, that on the wheel O between 0 and 9.90, and that on the wheel P between 0 and 99. At every complete revolution of one of the registering-wheelsits pin comes in contact with a tooth of its corresponding disk 7L and turns said disk to expose the next tooth through the reading-opening. Each tooth of these disks h bears a number, the numbers ou the disk actuated by the wheel N being multiples of iive from 0 to 70 and indicating dollars, those on the second and third disks h being multiples of one from 0 to 14 and indicating tens and hundreds ol dollars, respectively.

Supposing all the registering-wheels and disks to be set at 0, as the numbers on the wheel N are multiples of tive from 0 to 4.95, inclusive, upon a complete revolution of this wheel its pin j turns the corresponding disk h one notch and exposes a tooth bearing the nulnber 5, indicating live dollars. Upon a second complete revolution of the registeringwheel, the neXt tooth ofthe disk h,bearing the number l0, is exposed through the readingopening and indicates ten dollars. rlhe total amount registered on this wheel N and its disk h at any given time is ascertained by adding together the amountindicated by the number on the tooth ot`the disk h exposed through the reading-opening and the amount indicated by the number on the registering-wheel N which is exposed through the reading-opening at the same time. Thus, it' the number on the tooth be 10 and that ou the wheel 4.95, it will indicate that fourteen dollars and ninety-tive cents has been registered. It' the wheel Nbe then turned one notch farther,its 0 will be eX- posed, while its pi u j will have turned the disk h one notch and a tooth bearing the number 15 will be exposed, and a total of fifteen dollars indicated. Upon one complete revolution ofthe wheel O, whose numbers are multiples of ten from 0 to 9.90, inclusive, its disk h will be turned, and a tooth bearing the number l exposed through the readingopening. At the same time 0.00 will appear through the -reading-opening on the registering-wheel, and with the tooth bearing the number l at the immediate left of the 0.00 the amount of $10.00 is clearly indicated. If the wheel O be operated until its number 9.90 be exposed through the reading-opening, this number, with the tooth bearing the number 1 still exposed on the immediate left, will readily indicate $19.90. If the wheel O be then turned one notch farther, 0.00 will again appear through the reading-opening, while its disk L will be turned to expose a tooth bearing the number 2, and thus $20.00 will be clearly indicated. It will thus be seen that the total amount registered on this wheel O and its disk 7L is always clearly indicated by the numbers exposed through the reading-opening by mere numerical reading,withoutthe necessity ofany addition. The same istrue of the registeringwheel P, whose numbers are multiples of one from 0 to 99, inclusive. Upon a complete revolution of this wheel its disk It will be turned to expose the tooth bearing the number 1,while 00 will appear on the registerilig-wheel, thus indicating $100. It' the wheel P be further operated until its number 99 is exposed, the tooth bearing the number l will continue eX- posed on the immediate left of the 99, and thus $L99 will be indicated. Upon turning the wheel P one notch farther its disk h will be turned to expose a tooth bearing the number 2, while 00 will again appear on the registering-wheel, and $200 be thus indicated.

The disks h are readily reset to 0 at any time by means of the thumb-pieces la.

The numbered teeth on the disks h might be omitted and the numbers placed on the body ofthe disk, in which event, if only one reading-opening were provided for each disk, its edge should project far enough under the reading-opening to expose one of its numbers ata time through said opening, and the underside of its edge should be provided with a series of projections or teeth to engage with the pin on the registering wheel. Furthermore, each registering-wheel might bevprovided with two or more similar series of numbers, with a projecting pin between each series, in which event the numbers on its disk 7L would be multiples of the amount of each of such series. Thus the wheel N might have ve series of numbers, each series being multiples of .tive from 0 to 95 inclusive, with a projecting pin between each series, so that the disk 7L for this wheel would be turned one notch for every dollar registered on the wheel N. kThe numbers on the disk h should then be multiples of one and indicate dollars. In this manner the number on the disk h and that on the wheel N which were exposed through the reading-opening at the same time would always indicate the exact amount registered on said wheel and disk by mere numerical reading without any addition. l

By having only ten notches on this disk 7L, numbered from 0 to 9, inclusive, and providing an additional disk h with ten notches numbered from 0 to 9, inclusive, and indicating tens of dollars, to be turned one notch for every complete revolution of the iirst disk h, any amount less than one hundred dollars registered on the wheel Naud the two disks lt might be read oft at a glance without any ad- IOO IIO

dition, and by providing a third disk with silnilar notches and numbers any amount less than a thousand dollars would be indicated in numerical order in a similar manner.

Another feature of our invention relates to devices for preventing` the operation of two or more keys of a group at the same time, for in machines of this class,where asingle register-` ing-wheel is operated by a series of keys of different values, when two or more keys of a group are operated simultaneously the key of thehighest value operatedis the only one which actuates the registering-wheel, and thus the value of the other key or keys operated simultaneously with it is not registered at all. As a tablet is exposed for each ot' the two or more keys operated, while the value of only one is registered, without some means of preventing the operation of more than one key at a time a dishonest attendant will be able to register and account for a less amount of cash than he actually receives, while correctly indicating to the customers or third parties, by means ot the exposed tablets, the actual amount he has received. By reference to Figs. S and l2 one form of device l'or preventing the simultaneous operation of two or more keys of a group will be seen, and may be thus described:

Suitably pivoted, as at Z, to the rear part of the 'frame ofthe machine are a number ofpendent stops, m, whose lower edges, just over the rear ends ot the keys, are wedge-shaped, as shown. rlhcse stops are arranged in as many independent sets as there are independent series or groups of keys-in this instance one set for the dollar-kcys and one set for the eentkeys-aud they prevent the upward passage of more than one key ot a group at a time. For instance, to register live dollars the operator could not depress the tour-dollar and the one-dollar keys simultaneously to expose the tour-dollar and the onedollar tablets, (which action would only register four dollars) but is compelled to operate the tivedollar key and expose the five-dollar tablet, and thereby register live dollars. Upon the operation of any single key of a group the two stops m directly above it would be spread apart to permit the passage between them ot' the ascending rear end ol' the key. Upon attempting, however, to operate two keys simultaneously, if they be non-adjacent keys, the intermediate stops would be crowded together and prevent the passage ot' either key, and it they be adjacent keys the intermediate stop would be equally pressed by both, and thus locked to prevent the passage ot' either key, as will be readily understood.

rlhis feature ot our invention is not confined in its application tothe machine we have here shown and described. itis applicable to other Nor is this feature of our invention limited to the particular form and arrangement of the stops we have shown and described. Forinstance, the lower ends of the stops,insteadof being wedgeshaped, might be rounded or of other suitable shape to permit the passage of one key, but prevent the simultaneous passage of two or more. Again, the stops might be of a similar shape to those shown, but pivoted below the keys and extend up between them. XVhen a single key was operated, it would push the stops aside to permit its passage; but when it was attempted to operate two keys, if they were adjacent, they would become locked on the inclined sides of the intermediate stop,and if they were non-adjacent the intermediate stops would be crowded together to prevent their passage. lt is also evident that thcstops might be arranged to engage with the keys at other points than their rear ends.

Another feature of our invention (illustrated in Figs. 5 and (l) relates to an automatic lock to prevent the operation of any key of the machine while the cash-drawer is open. A bar, a, is pivoted, as at 0, to the trame of the ma chine and extends down into the drawer-compartment by the side ofthe drawer, as shown. The drawerp, which is arranged, asis customary in this class of machines, to be unlocked and partially propelled fromthe case by a weight or spring whenever any key is depressed, is provided with a Apin or stud, Q, upon its side. The bar a and the pin q are so located that when the draweris pushed in and locked the pin q will press back the lower end of the bar a, and thereby th row its upper end out ofthe way of the front end of the vibrating frame J. Upon the operation of any key Iand the propulsion of the drawer from the case thebar n will by gravity assume the position shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 5, thereby bringing its upper end directly under the vibrating frame and forming a lock to prevent the depression of said frame until, the drawer having been pushed in and again locked, the bar a will be swung by the pin q out of the way of the vibrating frame. In order that the proprietor may, when desired, throw this bar a permanently out of action, as during a rush of business, an ordinary key, 1', is provided, whicl1,whcn inserted through an opening provided in the side ofthe case and turned, will catch the bar a and swing it and hold it out of the way ofthe frame J, as seen in Fig. 6. As Seen in Figs. 3 and 13, the bell-trip is composed of a single bar, s, pivoted, as at t, to the lower part of the vibrating trame J, and extending rearwardly and upwardly and then back into engagement with a pin, u, on the gong-hammer o. The under side of the belltrip is beveled off, as seen in Fig. l3 and by the dotted line in Fig. 3, and the release ofthe gong-hammer is effected by this beveled portion riding up on a block, w, so placed that just at the completion of the stroke of the key the end of the trip will have been disengaged from the pin a to permit the gong-hammer to IOC) IIO

strike the gong and the wing, which has been pushed backward by the gong-hammer, to reset itself.

The novel features herein shown and described and not claimed, aswell as the various modifications in construction which have been described,are hereby reserved fora iuture application, to be presently tiled.

Having thus fully described our invention, we claiml.
